    That looks like a cunning plan BOB...hope you managed to get everything done.I've no answer about the servicing but made the mistake of going to another garage once for a service and he didn't even notice I needed new brake discs..I only knew two days later when the discs also needed replacing as they were metal to metal..he was not much cheaper than the dealership and ended up costing me more in the long run!!!!
    How's MR B..getting on with his lessons in debtbusting?..Is he learning anything yet?

    That's a good point about the garage..

    Well folkies have achieved quite a bit the past day or so.I don't need to postpone car payments so that's a relief, everything is tight but doable.:D

    Also on the Mr.B front..hmm, i have to admit that a lot of the conflict has been from my resentment of the situation and also not looking at it as joint debt. So that is what i am going to do..i know i will scream and shout along the way, but we are both now committed to getting rid of the debt and he has even cut up cards:eek:

    MBNA had varied the DD for some reason and he is checking on this so i gracefully apologised..but have told him that if he knuckles down will work my backside off..( not the same as the letter you understand..but if situation gets dire you never know:rotfl: )

    To show an entente cordiale, he bought me a massive Valentine card and is taking me out for a meal tonight ..no CC is an offer at a local cheap place ( food is good though)

    So there you go hopefully peace will reign for a while and i will stop verses..yeahhayy i hear yuo all say:rotfl: :rotfl:

    So bring on the Snowball..that sounds so wrong.

    Have a good day everyone.Bob x
